Surrounded by the ponderosa pine trees of the Prescott National Forest, the city of Prescott is known for its natural beauty and its temperate climate, which makes it the perfect place to go if you're trying to escape the heat of the Arizona summer. The 400 miles of hiking and mountain biking trails around the city can be enjoyed year-round, but if you'd rather spend the day in the city itself, there are plenty of museums and historical landmarks to explore downtown. Visitors should take special care not to miss the famous Whiskey Row, a historic street lined with turn-of-the-century saloons.
